I'm taking a moment out of my time to address: Feature screenwriting is really freakn hard. Kudos to all you out there who can do it.
As of now it deems impossible. I'm used to writing shorts and I feel more confident in that area. However, this is my first ever feature, so I guess I can't be too hard on myself (but i'm very notorious for being my own worst critic).
Ideas, ideas, ideas. I've never been good at thinking up stories or ideas. If I ever got an idea, it was always a small gift from God that was delivered to me by a white dove, so you probably can imagine good ideas for me are pretty rare. But when I get them, they're awesome!
So right now, I have a good idea, but I can't flesh it out.
So you may be wondering then, why the hell did I take this class? Honestly, as difficult as screenwriting has always been for me, there is something rewarding about it. I guess it's the challenge.
I also want to learn more about the process of screenwriting. Knowing everything just helps you become a better director anyway, so why the hell not?
Also, I've heard from professionals that I have great potential and show more advanced skills in screenwriting. I don't quite know what that means when compared to the rest of my classmates, but I guess that's pretty good news.
- On a separate note: "It's a Joke" is still on hold. I don't know how many of you know this, but I need a gallery for the location for the rest of our scenes.
I, again, asked the school to help me, so we'll see what happens, but my hopes aren't very high and the search for a great gallery continues.
Wish me luck.
